The sport and entertainment platform Dazn has announced it is lifting its paywall on all of its women’s football content and has launched a “New Deal” campaign asking stakeholders in the women’s game to think big in terms of their commitment to its growth.

As a result of the lifting of the paywall, all remaining Women’s Champions League matches this season – as well as 48 games in Spain’s Liga F, 48 in the Frauen Bundesliga, 19 games France’s D1 Arkema, 50 games in Italy’s Serie A Femminile and 15 games in the Women’s Saudi Premier League – will be guaranteed free to air in the UK and they will remain free to air for the foreseeable future.
